In the ArenaChina Inland Mission, Overseas Missionary Fellowship : Agents, Lutterworth Press, 1959 - Religion - 192 pages It was the 1920s, and a young woman named Isobel Selina Miller was making her mark in the theater, social and academic world. But through her mother's prayers and after a tragic romance, Isobel discovered peace with God. After reading about Hudson Taylor and the China Inland Mission, she felt a call to China, and specifically, to the Lisu people. Preparation at Moody Bible Institute was completed with honors, and eventually she sailed for China as a missionary. There she married John Kuhn whom she had first met during her training at Moody. Together they faced hardships, long separations, severe illness, war, and death itself. Yet through all this the church among the Lisu people grew in faith and the knowledge of Jesus Christ. - Back cover. |
